MIKE KEEGAN: Chelsea spent almost double any other Premier League club on agents fees‚ shock figures have revealed. A report released by the FA has disclosed that the west London outfit splashed out a staggering £65.1m on payments to representatives in the space of 12 months‚ which far outstrips the £38.4m of second highest spenders Aston Villa. The detail may not come as a surprise to Chelsea's fans given its substantial transfer activity under its US owners.

JACK GAUGHAN: Seventy-seven days until a clash with Croatia in Dallas and the battle for a small number of spots within Thomas Tuchel's England squad has yet to reach a definitive conclusion. The draw against Uruguay and defeat by Japan should focus minds ahead of the season run-in‚ when a few still remain on trial before Tuchel announces his 26 heading off to the World Cup. Tuchel experimented with different players and gave new caps across the two friendlies and opinions on who should make the squad will vary wildly up and down the country. Here‚ Daily Mail Sport looks at the runners and riders‚ who is certain of their spot among our picks and which talents are nervously looking over their shoulders.

Mesut Ozil has opened up on his new life in Istanbul following his retirement from football in 2023 - and revealed that he has still not healed the rift with his father that opened up 13 years ago with his move away from Real Madrid. The former Germany international was born to two Turkish immigrant parents in Gelsenkirchen‚ but has always felt deep ties to his ancestral homeland‚ which eventually saw him move to Fenerbahce after his spell at Arsenal. After calling time on his playing career with a final turn at BasaksehirOzil has continued to call Istanbul home.

Three Lions boss Thomas Tuchel named a 35-man squad for this international camp‚ which is giving him his final look at players up close and personal before he names the players he is taking to the World Cup. A number of players who have found themselves on the fringes got the chance to impress on Friday night‚ but it was a tepid performance against the South Americans that left fans critical. Now‚ though‚ England have confirmed that a revised squad of 27 players will continue in camp ahead of their friendly against Japan on Tuesday.

It's not the first time he has taken to the road with a bike‚ however - in 2024‚ He‚ alongside his brothers‚ climbed Mont Ventoux‚ located in southern Francewhich is arguably the most famous climb in the Tour de France‚ with competitors climbing between 1‚210 and 1‚617 metres as they ride.

Mick McCarthy has made his lingering feelings on Roy Keane - and the new Steve Coogan film depicting their 2002 World Cup fall-out - very clear in an x-rated speech at an event this week. McCarthy and Keane's two decade-long feud was dredged up this year with the release of Saipan‚ which sees Steve Coogan and Eanna Hardwicke star as the manager and captain of Ireland on a fateful pre-World Cup trip. The pair fell out at the Republic of Ireland's training camp on the pacific island of Saipan almost 24 years ago. The facilities were so poor that the team arrived without footballs and Keane did not hold back on McCarthy's handling of it. After much drama‚ angst and conflict‚ he flew home.

Michael Carrick admitted he was 'baffled' by the decision to not award Manchester United a penalty after Amad Diallo was felled in the box‚ while captain Bruno Fernandes vented his spleen over his 'frustration' that team-mate Harry Maguire had been handed a red card for a similar incident. Moments after referee Stuart Attwell had opted not to pause play amid Amad's protestations late on in the clash with Bournemouth on the south coast‚ Maguire pulled down Evanilson in his own penalty area‚ in a move which saw the England international sent off. Bournemouth were duly awarded a spot kick‚ which Junior Kroupi coolly despatched to level the score at 2-2.

IRIATH AL-SAMARRAI AT THE VITALITY STADIUM: If anything can typify the undulating career of Harry Maguire‚ it is that his revival on the international stage could be followed by a game-changing red card within a matter of hours. Poor fella‚ even in the good times he cannot outrun the drama. We should explain how that looked and the dramatic effect it had on this match‚ which is to say that Manchester United led 2-1 with 77 minutes played and a moment later they had 10 men and it was 2-2. His dismissal for a clumsy bodycheck on Evanilson was warranted‚ and the subsequent penalty from Junior Kroupi decisive‚ but you would have to be stoney of heart to feel nothing for Maguire on the day Thomas Tuchel brought him in from the cold. Or not. If you support Bournemouth or simply enjoy carnage‚ you won't care a jot.

IAN HERBERT AT ANFIELD: Hope sprang eternal because this is Anfield‚ the partisan‚ stubbornly inhospitable place where European comebacks have become an art form and folk memory. Long before kick-off‚ they were‚ of course‚ dialling down the list of clubs who had arrived here with an advantage and left with nothing: Barcelona 2019‚ Olympiacos 2004‚ right back to St Etienne 1977‚ when a skinny-legged David Fairclough danced through the French midfield and sent Liverpool on into a European Cup they won. This challenge seemed every bit as great as those because‚ although Galatasaray brought a mere one-goal advantage‚ something at the heart of Liverpool is malfunctioning. A club whose glories have always been based on the collective is suddenly a group of moving parts. 'Not a team but a team of individuals‚ as Jamie Carragher put it in a searing and significant analysis on Sky's Monday Night Football this week‚ after the late capitulation to Tottenham Hotspur which in so many ways felt like a defeat.

CRAIG HOPE AT THE NOU CAMP: Barcelona did not need the cunning of this city's pickpockets to win‚ not when Newcastle simply handed over their wallet. In doing so‚ Eddie Howe's side lost the richest match in the club's history and a heavy cost‚ too. A record European defeat in which morale and momentum took a kicking at the feet of Lamine Yamal and Raphinha. Their season now rests‚ very uncomfortably after this‚ on Sunday's Tyne-Wear derby. Barcelona‚ at their brutal best‚ can do this to teams‚ of course. But Newcastle were never likely to beat the Spanish champions when so determined to beat themselves. That will be the annoyance for Howe‚ just when he thought his team had rediscovered their doggedness in defence. This was more like a dog's dinner and Yamal and Co gleefully dined out on the generosity.

IAN LADYMAN AT ST JAMES' PARK: A goal to rejuvenate a football team and perhaps to kick start a season. A goal to remind the naysayers that there is beauty still to be found in the Premier League. Newcastle were not supposed to win this game. Not after having a player - Jacob Ramsey - sent off unjustly for a dive that never was just before half-time. Once the Manchester United midfielder Casemiro equalised an Anthony Gordon penalty that had quickly followed the red card‚ it seemed inevitable that Eddie Howe's team - in such poor form of late - would wither. But despite all the over-reactive talk of falling standards and levels of entertainment‚. football at the top level remains wonderfully unpredictable and not only did Newcastle somehow retain the upper hand against a poor United team that looked short of ideas‚ they struck to win the game right at the end of a second half in which they played with courage and - from somewhere - energy.

A raft of top stars from the men's and women's game descended on London on Monday evening to take in Burberry's Autumn/Winter 2026 show‚ which served as the crescendo for this season's London Fashion Week. The storied British house hosted its show at Old Billingsgate Market‚ the former fish market in the City‚ the venue dotted with puddles for the models to walk through‚ clustered around a small replica of the Tower of London. Against the backdrop of the classically English scene‚ it was fitting that a number of the country's international stars were there to take in the show‚ with Lionesses captain Leah Williamson leading the charge.
